Researchers have developed a machine learning algorithm they say accurately predicts the degree of processing in food products.

From genes to memes: Algorithm may help scientists demystify complex networks Algorithm helps study of how relatively simple actions can lead to complex behaviors, from cancer growth to voting patterns Whether it is how genes that switch on or off can lead to cancers, or votes can turn into complex voting patterns, complex networks are vital to understand, but computationally intense to study. A Penn State-led team of researchers developed an algorithm that makes the study of complex networks m...

New algorithm can be a more effective way to analyze models of biological systems From biochemical reactions that produce cancers, to the latest memes virally spreading across social media, simple actions can generate complex behaviors. For researchers trying to understand these emergent behaviors, however, the complexity can tax current computational methods. Now, a team of researchers has developed a new algorithm that can serve as a more effective way to analyze models of biological systems,...

Existing drugs may hold the key to curing COVID-19 By Eva Botkin-Kowacki  News at Northeastern Developing new drugs to treat diseases can take years or decades—time that we do not have when it comes to treating patients with COVID-19. So Northeastern researchers came up with another way to discover treatments for the disease: parsing through drugs that already exist. And, after considering all the drugs that are currently available to patients to treat myriad other ailments, they’ve now id...

Existing drugs may hold the key to curing COVID‑19 Developing new disease treatments can take years. Thats why Northeastern researcher Deisy Morselli Gysi and her colleagues looked at existing drugs to treat COVID-19. And now they have four strong contenders.
